As far as fake tattoos go…I gotta say, the new NARS temporary tattoos are LEGIT. If you want to get all tatted up to scare your mom or surprise your friends, they’re well worth the $35.
I wore them to brunch last weekend, and the first thing my BFF Cindy said was, “Good gawd, woman! How could you get all inked up without telling me!?”
Ha! 🙂 Cindy has known me for 25 years (give or take), and she knows that 1) I’m terrified of needles, and 2) I’m one of the last people in the world who would ever get a tattoo (I’m too fickle and would guaranteed change my mind after it’s too late), so the fact that these temporary tats fooled her says something.
It says that these things look real!
They’re still around, by the way, and that’s after three days, during which I had two sweaty workouts and took three showers.
I’m on day four now, and they’re just beginning to look a little long in the tooth (they’re fading and starting to slightly peel), so I’ll probably take them off later tonight.
After what I’m wearing in these pics, I still have quite a few left from the four sheets, but I’m saving them for my next trip home.
My mom is gonna freak out, HAHA! 🙂
Joining the temporary tats in the NARS Last Resort collection is a new (“air quotes”) bronzer called Tahiti Laguna ($59). “Air quotes” because it’s basically just good, old golden shimmery tan NARS Laguna, but in a big pan with a tiny Ita brush.
And also a couple of moisturizing beauty oils, which I’ve yet to try.
I do love the color of the bronzer (I’m wearing it in these pics to warm up my skin), but sometimes I get a little Laguna overload…
Both the NARS tattoos and Tahiti Laguna Bronzer are available now online and at NARS boutiques and Sephora. They also arrive at NARS counters April 1.
Ahem. We need to know what’s on your lips!
Hi Kim,
It’s NARS Lodhi. 🙂
What lip color are you wearing? It’s lovely on you.
Thanks, Cheryl C.! It’s NARS Lodhi.
Someone gave me glow-in-the-dark and glittery temporary celtic tattoos for St Paddy’s day, haha! I might actually wear a couple. Just for fun. Like you I’m the last person in the world who’d get a tattoo, the fewer needles I see the better I feel!
Otherwise, I wish Nars would introduce a new bronzer. Imagine the riot if they released a bronzer in a cool-looking compact and it was NOT Laguna, lol!
You should totally do it! What do the designs look like?
I like the tattoos! I probably won’t get them, but they are cool.

Me too, Monica! They’re very tropical tough girl chic. 🙂
I was really surprised to see Nars do temporary tattoos. Definitely unexpected from them as a brand!
They look cool but seem a little overpriced, although fun. I have enough real tattoos to go around though haha. I love how those tattoos look on you though, especially the ones you did on your forearm! They look awesome.
those tattoos look amazing!
I really like those tattoos 🙂 I could definitely see myself having some fun with those.
Yay for the tattoos. I´d love to have one, but I have difficulties deciding which lipstick to wear for the day, so there is no way I can pick a picture to wear for the rest of my life.
Or maybe i will change my mind about that, too, and get a Maori chin tattoo, now that I have seen them in person.
If I was in the mood for a bikini, those would be on my must buy list.
Those tattoos are starting to grow on me. I kinda want them now lol. They just look so cool!
You are looking gorgeous!! What foundation are you wearing in the post? I’m obsessed with finding the perfect one!
How many ounces are in the bronzer?
